Seventeen-year-old Lyra has always known she is different.
Her ears are too long, her teeth are unnaturally sharp, and claws grow where her fingernails should be. Yet no matter how many questions she asks, her parents refuse to explain why.
Then, one day, everything she knows is taken from her.
Raised by her human mother under an old agreement, Lyra was never supposed to know the truth. But when her mother dies, the promise made seventeen years ago must be fulfilled. Taken across the ocean and into the world of the fae, she is expected to learn the ways of nobility and take her place among the aristocracy.
But Lyra has never been interested in being a proper noblewoman.
Living beside a prestigious warrior academy, she starts dreaming of becoming a warrior herself. Against every expectation and despite those who believe a halfling has no place among them, she fights her way into the academy. And there she finds the dragons who can't take their eyes off her.
The more Lyra learns about the fae world, the more she realizes that her arrival was never simply about a father's promise to his daughter. There are secrets surrounding her birth, her bloodline, and the ancient creatures that seem strangely drawn to her.
Lyra thought she was crossing the ocean to find out where she came from, but she might instead find where she will die.
